One Republic Ft. Timbaland

OneRepublic's song "Apologize," written by Ryan Tedder, was released in its original version on the band's debut album Dreaming Out Loud. The song was also prominently featured as a remix on Timbaland's 2007 release of Shock Value. The single, as featured on Shock Value, has gone three times Platinum (marking three million copies sold in the US) and five million copies worldwide.[10] It peaked at number three on the UK official Top 40 Week on November 11, 2007.[4] The week of November 10, 2007, "Apologize" was the biggest radio airplay hit in the history of Top 40 radio in North America, racking up 10,331 spins in one week.[11] The song held the number one position for five months before the record was broken by "Bleeding Love," a song co-written and produced by Tedder.[12] The band is widely known for their collaboration with producer Timbaland, specifically for his remix of their song, "Apologize". Tedder also reciprocated by remixing Timbaland's "The Way I Are," drastically changing the song's vibe by adding a rock vibe into the synth-driven melody. The less polished version was leaked on the internet before the final version ended up on Tedder's MySpace page.
